Definitions
- the present invention concerns a method for producing a sensor unit, and a sensor unit for sensing the angular position of a rotatable element with respect to a fixed element which can be produced using such a method.
- the invention also concerns an instrumented bearing comprising such a sensor unit.
- Sensor units for sensing the angular position of a rotatable element often include induction sensors, for example known from US-B-5 309 094 , involving an encoder element, adapted to generate magnetic field variations, and a sensing element adapted to determine, on the basis of the magnetic field variations, the angular position of the rotating element.
- the data delivered by the sensing element are generally processed by electronic components integrated in a printed circuit board to which the sensing element is connected.
- the sensing element and the printed circuit board are mounted in a shielding casing made of a metallic material, and adapted to protect the sensing element and the printed circuit board from too intense magnetic fields.
- the shielding casing catches a substantially high portion of the magnetic fields that exist in its vicinity, it provokes electric potential differences between the shielding casing and the printed circuit board. These electric potential differences continuously increase and can reach a level at which electric arcs can occur and destroy some components of the printed circuit board.
- the aim of the invention is to provide a new method for producing a sensor unit, which permits to make the electrical potential differences between the casing of the sensor body with the electronic components harmless to the printed circuit board.
- the invention concerns a method for producing a sensor unit for sensing the angular position of a rotatable element with respect to a fixed element, comprising an encoder element fast with the rotatable element, adapted to generate magnetic field variations as a function of its angular position, and a sensing element fast with the fixed element, adapted to sense the magnetic field variations, the sensing element being connected to a printed circuit board mounted in a shielding casing fast with the fixed element.
- This method is characterized in that it comprises a step consisting in earthing the shielding casing by electrically connecting it to a load discharging device of the printed circuit board.
- the shielding casing is not at a random electric potential. This avoids potentially dangerous uncontrolled increases of its electric potential, and therefore prevents electronic components damages on the printed circuit board.
- such a method may incorporate one of several of the following features:
- the invention also concerns a sensor unit for sensing the angular position of a rotatable element with respect to a fixed element, comprising an encoder element which is fast with the rotatable element, adapted to generate magnetic field variations as a function of its angular position, and a sensing element fast with the fixed element, adapted to sense the magnetic field variations, the sensing element being connected to a printed circuit board mounted in a shielding casing fast with the fixed element.
- This sensor unit is characterized in that it comprises means to electrically connect the shielding casing to a load discharging device of the printed circuit board.
- such a sensor unit may incorporate one of several of the following features:
- the load discharging device comprises at least one pad protruding towards a surface of the shielding casing.
- the invention also concerns an instrumented bearing comprising a bearing including a fixed ring and a rotating ring, and a sensor unit as mentioned here-above, whereas the encoder element is fast with the rotating ring and the sensing element is fixed to the fixed ring.
- the bearing is of the rolling type and comprises rolling elements located between the fixed ring and the rotating ring.
- the instrumented bearing 2 represented on the figures comprises a rolling bearing 4 including a rotating inner ring 42 and a fixed outer ring 44. Between inner ring 42 and outer ring 44 are located balls 45 mounted in a cage 46.
- rolling bearing 4 may comprise other types of rolling element, such as rollers or needles.
- Inner ring 42 is rotatable with respect to outer ring 44 around a central rotation axis X-X' of rolling bearing 4.
- Instrumented bearing 2 also comprises a sensor unit 6.
- Sensor unit 6 comprises an encoder element 62, fast with inner ring 42 and adapted to generate magnetic field variations as a function of its angular position.
- Encoder element 62 comprises a frame 621 and a magnetic ring 623. Magnetic ring 623 is fixed to frame 621, which is fixed to inner ring 42.
- Sensor unit 6 further comprises a sensor body 64, which is mounted in a shielding casing or yoke 66 fixed to the outer ring 44.
- Sensor body 64 comprises a sensing element 640.
- Sensing element 640 is a transducer adapted to sense the magnetic field variations generated by the rotation of the magnetic ring 623 around axis X-X'.
- Sensing element 640 has a substantially parallelepiped shape extending parallel to axis X-X' and faces magnetic ring 623 along a radial direction.
- Sensing element 640 is mounted on and connected to a printed circuit board or PCB 642 thanks to a support member 644.
- PCB 642 is mounted in shielding casing 66.
- Shielding casing 66 is an annular shaped metallic part centred on axis X-X' and which comprises an inner cylindrical wall 662, a radial bottom wall 664 perpendicular to axis X-X' and an outer cylindrical wall 666. Wall 662 and 666 are centred on and parallel to axis X-X'.
- Shielding casing 66 is made of steel having a high magnetic permeability.
- PCB 642 has a half-annular shape corresponding to the shape of shielding casing 66 and is mounted against bottom wall 664.
- sensor body 64 may comprise a support plate 646, on which PCB 642 is mounted, support plate 646 being mounted against bottom wall 664 of shielding casing 66.
- Sensing element 640, support member 644, PCB 642 and support plate 646 are over moulded in a layer 648 of plastic material injected in shielding casing 66.
- shielding casing 66 is earthed by electrically connecting it to PCB 642.
- a first embodiment is represented on figure 4 .
- the electrical connection between shielding casing 66 and PCB 642 is obtained with a stamped finger 668 which forms an element protruding towards printed circuit board 642.
- Stamped finger 668 makes an electrical contact with a non-shown load discharging device implemented in PCB 642.
- Stamped finger 668 can be realized using a spike shaped punch. Each stamped finger 668 protrudes from an internal surface 664a of bottom wall 664 by a distance d1 comprised between 0.1 and 5 mm.
- shielding casing 66 comprises several stamped fingers 668 electrically connected to printed circuit board 642 at various locations of PCB 642.
- a second embodiment of the invention is represented on figure 5 .
- elements similar to the first embodiment have the same references and work in the same way.
- Shielding casing 66 does not comprise any stamped finger 668.
- the electrical connection between PCB 642 and shielding casing 66 is obtained by providing the load discharging device with at least one contact pad 642a protruding towards bottom wall 664 and making a contact with surface 664a.
- contact pad 642a protrudes from PCB by a distance equal to distance d1.
- Contact pad 642a is preferably made of tin, in order to facilitate its shaping.
- a third embodiment of the invention is represented on figure 6 .
- This embodiment combines the techniques used in the first and the second embodiments.
- the electrical contact is made both by providing the load discharging device with a protruding contact pad 642a and by creating one or more stamped fingers 668 on shielding casing 66.
- the contact pads 642a and the stamped fingers 668 make an electrical contact with each other.
- a hole 646a is provided in support plate 646 to permit the protrusion of stamped fingers 668 and the passage of contact pad 642a towards shielding casing 666 through support place 646. Holes 646a are provided at each area where shielding casing 66 is electrically connected to PCB 642.
- sensor body 64 may not comprise any support plate 646.
- PCB 642 is mounted in shielding casing 66 with a mounting clearance.
